Settler? Prince? Warlord? King?
I have been here less than a month and I have read pretty much everything on AC-General/Help/strategy. Everey topic and every thread (well not quite evereyone but close to). There is something that have caught my attention. Namely, the "Title" you receive when joined as memeber here. So I am obviously a settler. What is that? What is a Prince? King? Warlord? What is the difference between them, why would I wanna "advance", can I advance, who's on the top? Would someone mind telling this poor Settler.

edt. more questions

Click on the "profile" button above one of you posts to get your profile. It shows your number of posts which is the basis for settler, etc. Click on the mail slot just above the main stratagy/general/help page currently labled "civers wanted for sacrifice". The FAQ is the second post on that list.

Wow, just when you think you have settle down, the entire thing blows up on your face. I were actually introduced to the FAQ page at my joining but did of cause not pay enough attention at it as I should have (read the first 4-5 FAQ and not all of them... sorry). I also found out the key for using the smiley faces
So does this message count? I am still on the topic (although the topic those give me a advantage towards keep talking about how many posts I should or shouldn't post to get a higher title. So maybe I should continue this discussion, maybe not?). Anyway, I think all of you "newbies" should read the FAQ if you haven't already done it. I know I learn something that I didn't know before :O

By the way, I just realise that I havene't even read half of all the stuff on AC-General/Help/Strategy. There is actually 7 PAGES !!!
Ah well, I guess I just keep reading till I drop.

I thought I might SMAC the titles, since I'm not a Civer:

Settler ..... Citizen
Chieftain ... Specialist
Warlord ..... Talent
Prince ...... Librarian
King ........ Thinker
Emperor ..... Transcend
Deity ....... Immortal

Sorry to nitpick, but a more realistic SMAC comparison:

Settler - Colony Pod
Chieftain - Citizen
Warlord - Specialist
Prince - Talent
King - Librarian
Emperor - Thinker
Deity - Transcend

I feel some people might object to being called a Colony Pod. I would suggest replacing it with Drone.
